这是个五岁想当农夫，八岁想当炮兵，之后想到威廉波特打少棒，想当记者想当上帝想当拿破仑的情妇想当伊莉莎白一世的少女，合上书页时所有时间犹如雕像静止，尚未启动，这是一切漫游的起点，这是老灵魂，后来频频回眺，为之伤逝，为之悼亡的黄金时光。 很多人认可天心的才情出众，却实在太少人知道天心的看书之多。 天心是自幼大人书看得多，到得读书便人家十遍方可读熟，是为苦读；她却只读一遍两遍即通，自是乐读。 —— 朱西宁 我家的销量冠军是妹妹天心的《击壤歌》，有二三十万册，我们都说天心是印钞机。《击壤歌》写了少女高中时代的故事，有很多少年都喜欢读，经常写信来表达崇拜之情。这情形很像现在的偶像作家。 —— 朱天文 由于家学渊源，十来岁的朱天心已颇有大将之风，再加上老牌才子胡兰成的点拨，下笔行文在在令人惊艳。《击壤歌》所焕发的率性浪漫，不啻是《未央歌》的一脉真传，而朱天心那样随便的就念完北一女，还成了台大人，真让我辈叹为观止，她还参与“三三”，诗书天下，礼乐江山，好不热闹。 —— 王德威 朱家一门两代三人都是好作家，这是世界上少见的，如果没人能举出另外的例子，我要说这在世界上是仅见的；而且朱家的女婿，也就是二女朱天心的先生谢材俊，亦是好作家，好评论家，好编辑；再有天文她们的母亲刘慕沙，是日本文学的汉文翻译家。 我有时在朱家坐着，看着他们男女老少，真是目瞪口呆。 —— 阿城
